Beautifully printed sheet of a hard to find subject. Unfortunately Microscale have made some glaringly large (pun intended) errors.

First up are the stars and bars. These are way too large. More 1/32 than 1/48. In fact they are larger than those on the Hasegawa 1/32 skyhawk. In addition, on my sheet the blue looks a little to light in shade

Secondly , the “MARINES” text is too large and the wrong font.

On the plus side, the carrier is minimal and the printing is perfectly in register.

My Opinion:

Only worth buying if “MUST” have this airframe or if you have plenty of spares to replace the glaring errors. But if you do , it will result in a model in rarely seen livery
